Every Morning in Africa

Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must outrun the fastest lion or it will be killed.

Every morning in Africa, a lion wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the slowest gazelle, or it will starve.

It doesn't matter whether you're a lion or a gazelle  when the sun comes up, you'd better be running!

A dark-maned, male lion rests as a herd of oryx antelope watch his movements very carefully for any sign of threat. This lion was photographed by Grant Atkinson in the Central Kalahari Game Reserve, Botswana. Visit www.grantatkinson.com for more awesome wildlife photos.
